Flood and coastal risk schemes are delivered mainly through the Collaborative Delivery Framework, alongside frameworks for mapping, modelling and property flood resilience. These frameworks run through a central contract management system. Commercial oversight sits with Defra Group Commercial, alongside the Environment Agency's own project teams.

Over the past 5 years, most of the Environment Agency's contract awards have been in construction work, architectural and engineering services and research and development.
